Just Picture It

Sometimes I think I’ll never be a good writer, definitely not a great one. I’m too much of a perfectionist.

Maybe I’ll just stick to reading books instead of trying to write them…

Let is snow, let is snow, let it snow…

Yes! It’s finally snowing in Belgium! :D

Het was de dag waarop zelfs de klok de tijd niet meer wist.

It was the day even the clock couldn’t tell time anymore.

Hirundo - part 3

Suddenly she stopped. The only sound came from the rain. Fully concentrated, she stared at a point on the horizon. There was magic in the air. I could sense it. I felt uncomfortable. I had the feeling I wasn’t allowed to witness what I was about to see, but I couldn’t move. My limbs didn’t want to obey me anymore. The sun appeared from behind the clouds and made the still falling raindrops glitter. She mumbled a few complicated syllables and the most beautiful rainbow came into sight. The colours shone in the sunbeams. The girl now took the earring from her right ear and held it in front of her. A few incomprehensible sounds and a mini-waterspout later she held a twinkling cristal flask in her hands. My eyes almost became the size of two times the sun as she locked a little bit of rainbow in the flask, which she carefully sealed. Her lips nearly touched the cap while she closed the little bottle thoroughly. The rainbow disappeared again, a stormy wind came up. Terrified she looked up to the clouds, which became darker and darker, until they were as black as the feathers of a raven.

Plots stopte ze. Het enige geluid kwam van de regen. Ze keek geconcentreerd naar een punt aan de horizon. Er hing magie in de lucht. Ik kon het voelen. Ik voelde me ongemakkelijk. Ik had het gevoel dat ik geen getuige mocht zijn van wat ik nu te zien zou krijgen, maar kon me niet bewegen. Mijn ledematen wilden niet meer naar me luisteren. De zon verscheen tussen de wolken en liet de nog steeds neervallende druppels schitteren. Ze mompelde een paar ingewikkelde lettergrepen en een prachtige regenboog verscheen. De kleuren schitterden in de invallende zonnestralen. Het meisje nam nu één oorbel uit haar rechteroor en hield deze voor haar. Enkele onbegrijpelijke klanken en een mini-waterhoosje later hield ze een fonkelend kristallen flesje in haar handen. Mijn ogen werden wel dubbel zo groot als de zon, toen ze een stukje regenboog opsloot in het flesje, dat ze weer zorgvuldig afsloot. Haar lippen raakten bijna de dop terwijl ze het parfumflesje grondig verzegelde met haar woorden. De regenboog verdween weer, een stormwind kwam opzetten. Angstig keek ze naar de wolken die steeds donkerder werden, tot ze gitzwart waren, als de veren van een raaf. 

Sorry for my bad English :). I do hope you’ll enjoy it anyways :).

Best New Year’s Eve ever :).

Gave my mother the not to subtle hint to buy me a Wreck This Journal :p.
I really really really really really hope she’ll get me 1!
Would be an amazing break from the studying for my first exams in college ever ö!! 
Not that I’m actually nervous about it, still got 3 full weeks for preparing everything :). 

We’re gonna party like it’s my birthday :D!!

18, the age of adulthood… at least on paper

*Ding ding ding* We have a record!

I think I set a personal record this morning! I got dressed, brushed my teeth, washed my face and left home in only 5 minutes!

I slept through the 6 awesome songs of my alarm. I was like: who the f*ck would sleep through 6 alarms???!! My sister did wake up when she heard my alarm, but apparently didn’t feel the need of waking me up —’.

Fortunately I didn’t miss my bus :). Maybe I should turn the volume of my alarmclock a little louder tomorrow morning…

I’m so extremely tired and school hasn’t even started yet for me! I hope it will all be worth it… Oh and it might take a while for the next part of that big story I’m posting because I will be all busy and exhausted until next Thursday! *sighs…….*

Scouting is… spending a whole week painting, making slides and putting up tents! I guess…
